I liked to be in Hell, and I liked to be there alone. Violence tangled in this tissue, This shame, I am cut open, A faithful mutilation with scars that Read like atonement. This Rage is violent and mine- The wrong kind of ugly, I know. The living body of a survivor Wakes up each morning in a grave. I have always carried my love for this world, Carried my horrible reverence for this world, This world is sick like a knife. I can feel eternity pressing against my throat. There is Nothing, It comes to devour from the inside. The length of silence swells like a syndicate of ants. In Hell we are alone. What can you do besides hold your hand out to the dark?
